1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners.
This Cookie Policy explains how Beel, operated by The Formula AI S.r.l. (Via Marco Ulpio Traiano 37, 20149, Milan, Italy), uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit getbeel.com.
2. Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of Beel. They cannot be disabled as they are required for the Service to function correctly. The legal basis for these cookies is our legitimate interest in providing a secure, functional service (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)).
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Session cookie | Maintains your authenticated session after login | First-party | Session / 7 days |
| CSRF token | Protects against cross-site request forgery attacks | First-party | Session |
| Cookie consent | Remembers your cookie preference choices | First-party | 6 months |
| Supabase auth | Authentication token for secure API access | First-party | Session / 7 days |
3. Analytics
We use Simple Analytics (simpleanalytics.com) as our website analytics provider. Simple Analytics is a privacy-friendly analytics tool based in The Netherlands (EU) that:
- Does not use cookies or any tracking technology
- Does not collect personal data or IP addresses
- Does not track users across websites
- Is fully GDPR compliant without requiring consent
Because Simple Analytics does not use cookies or process personal data, no consent is required for this analytics service under the GDPR or ePrivacy Directive. You can view our public analytics dashboard and learn more about their privacy practices at docs.simpleanalytics.com/what-we-collect.
4. Functional Cookies
These cookies remember your preferences and settings to provide a more personalized experience. They are not essential but enhance your use of Beel.
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Theme preference | Remembers your light/dark mode selection | First-party | 12 months |
| Language preference | Remembers your language selection | First-party | 12 months |
| UI preferences | Remembers sidebar state, table settings, and other UI choices | First-party | 12 months |
5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies may be set by third-party services that we integrate with. These services have their own cookie and privacy policies, which we encourage you to review:
| Provider | Purpose | Privacy Policy |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase | Authentication and session management | supabase.com/privacy |
| Vercel | Performance monitoring and hosting infrastructure | vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy |
| Stripe | Fraud prevention during payment processing | stripe.com/privacy |
| Simple Analytics | Privacy-friendly analytics (no cookies, no personal data) | simpleanalytics.com/privacy |
6. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
6.1 Cookie Preference Panel
When you first visit Beel, a cookie banner will appear allowing you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by accessing the cookie settings in the footer of the website.
6.2 Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically:
- View all cookies stored on your device
- Delete individual cookies or all cookies at once
- Block cookies from specific or all websites
- Set separate preferences for first-party and third-party cookies
Please note that blocking essential cookies may impair the functionality of the Service. We do not block access to the site if you reject non-essential cookies.
6.3 Opt-Out Links
Our analytics provider, Simple Analytics, does not use cookies or track personal data, so no opt-out is necessary. If you still wish to prevent Simple Analytics from counting your visits, you can add the domain to your browser's ad blocker or use the official opt-out page at simpleanalytics.com/opt-out.
7. Do Not Track
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal that indicates to websites that you do not want to be tracked. Beel respects DNT signals — when DNT is enabled in your browser, we will not set analytics or non-essential cookies.
8. Consent & Italian Garante Compliance
In compliance with the Italian Data Protection Authority (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali) guidelines on cookies (effective January 2022) and the ePrivacy Directive:
- Non-essential cookies are only set after obtaining your explicit consent
- Scrolling alone does not constitute valid consent
- The accept and reject options on our cookie banner are equally prominent (no dark patterns)
- You can close the cookie banner without making a choice, in which case only essential cookies are used
- We re-request consent periodically (every 6 months) as recommended by the Garante
- We maintain records of consent as proof of valid consent collection
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or applicable regulations. We will post the updated policy on this page and update the "Last updated" date. Material changes will be communicated via the cookie banner upon your next visit.
